Top pick: #8 (MIDNIGHT CROONER) (3-1) - He's been freshened up for the past two months and when last in action he rallied to just miss at thia tag on June 22nd at Hollywood. There's lots of speed signed on and that should help set up his stretch charge.
2nd pick: #7 (Mr Bossy Pants) (8-1) - Price play stretches back out and moves up in class after winning a 6-furlong grass sprint racing for a $15K tag at Hollywood on July 13th. He always comes to run and his stalking style may do well in this field.
3rd pick: #4 (Trelawny) (12-1) - One of two front-end specialists entered and he drops down a bit and stretches out for trainer Jeff Mullins. He has back class, is working fast, and runs second back from a two month layoff.
4th pick: #2 (Oak Kye Why) (92) - Speedy sort has his share of physical problems but has won both starts this year after coming back from a 14 month layoff in May and this lightly raced 6-year-old gelding is 3-for-4 at this trip.
5th pick: #3 (Sebastian Flyte) (9-2) - Former stakes winner rallied to finish a close up 4th here on July 25th when facing a bit tougher and this once much classier runner must be left in the same race exotic bets.
